What is the conclusion ? Should i stick to 1.9 or keep it at 2.147000 Laskos's 1.9 seems fine but i'm uncertain what is trully the best. For LTC on an RTX GPU, 1.9 seems some 90% likely to be better than the default Kiudee. No cherry picking of data and wrong likelihood estimation methodology. For ...

I m happy Larry you re trying this match. Yes this time Komodo might finally be underdog. But maybe it won't last forever... I m like you, hoping one day the best engine could give a knight handicap against the strongest in the world. Well, at tournament time control against top humans, this might ...

Sounds exciting. Thanks for the heads up. Ballpark score could be 3.5 - 2.5 win for Komodo. All draws plus 1 win for the engine. Well, as Tal reportedly said when told that Bobby Fischer said in the 1960s that he could give knight odds to any woman chessplayer, "Fischer is Fischer, but a knight is ...

Great info. I look forward to trying the 1.9 CPuct. I do have a completely different experience on the DX12 backend however. I run an ASUS Strix 2080TI OC (watercooled). And the DX12 backend is nearly 25% slower. It also goes nuts if I set a batch size of 512 like I run under cuda. It likewise goes...

I would like to get a screen shot of your complete UCI settings or your parameter disk file, if you use that instead. There is not much to add to the defaults of the v0.24rc1 settings, which incorporated the Kiudee settings as default (and added some new). Only these parameters overwrite the defaul...

Hardware: 4 core i7 fast CPU RTX 2070 OC-ed GPU 1/ I was on holidays, in fact unknowingly, in coronavirus hit areas, and left my PC for a long run to check for a possible improvement to the Kiudee settings to LTC. I seem to get a positive result changing that: CPuct=1.90 instead of Kiudee one CPuct=...

Thanks Laskos for testing. It's good to know that the speed increase translates to improvement in playing strength. The dx backend (that defaults to fp16 precision) uses a different algorithm for convolution (winograd) that scales better with bigger networks compared to what cudnn-fp16 uses (implic...
